No it's not. I need to have the checksums of all files. Verify is slower: all data must be written, flushed and reread. Generating hash while copying doesn't need to read again, nor flush, and it's all sequential. After finishing, another whole sequential verification process is a lot faster, and Checksums will remain with backup for future integrity checks.
The idea of generating hash while copying for future integrity checks is really intereresting, support++isidro wrote: ↑2022-09-27, 04:19 UTC No it's not. I need to have the checksums of all files.

I mean something like that:
Code: Select all
[v] [Verify using method...]Code: Select all
Verify method:
[ ] Full verify
[v] Create hash (checksum) valuesThat would be good only if full checksum file is generated while copying, and verification is done after copy has finished. In that way one could interrupt verification and do it later if needed.
